Prosperous Justice Party

The Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) is an Islamist political party in Indonesia that was founded on 20 April 2002 by Nurmahmudi Ismail. The party was initially influenced by the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, and it called for Islam to play a central role in public life. However, the party later adopted Pancasila principles and no longer held sharia as a major goal, instead retaining nationalist views.
